US Supreme Court Upholds Wisconsin Voter ID Law

The US
Supreme Court has upheld
the constitutionality of the Wisconsin Voter ID law that requires a
photo identification in order to vote. Hopefully more states will
follow to prevent fraudulent voting practiced by the Democrat Party
for more than 50 years. With Obama's unconstitutional amnesty and
back-door processing of illegal immigrants this is an important move
in deterring corruption within the voting system as well as
government. Judging from the background of the SCOTUS justices, it is
a happy surprise that they are abiding by their oaths of office and
protecting the Constitution and using common sense when it comes to
applying it to legislative actions.

Hooray for
Governor Walker and the Wisconsin legislature for standing up against
corruption. If voting becomes corrupted, which it has, it means that
legitimate voters are not being heard. Evidence points towards the
marginal lead in winning Election 2012 was because of illegal voting
actions across the nation, for example, dead people voting, those
with fraudulent identification voting, and people voting more than
once.

Of course, unlike Election 2004, the mainstream media did not
bother to follow up on obvious voting corruption at polling places.
Remember the presence of union thugs at a vote recount in Florida?
The threatening presence of the 'New' Black Panther Party members at
polling places?

Sometimes
it is hard to believe this is still the United States.

Governor
Walker and the Wisconsin state legislature has made progress in
getting our state government back on track. They have stood up
against trade union thugs in the 'Right to Work' agenda, as well as
stimulated the economy by reducing negative regulations and heavy
taxation that discourages business development and promotes business
to move elsewhere (to another state or country). In addition,
Wisconsin joins other states in enforcing the Second Amendment by
providing citizens the opportunity to acquire a concealed carry
permit for self-defense and community protection. The draconian
crossbow law has been repealed and now hunters have a choice to use a
bow or crossbow during the appropriate hunting season. It looks like
soon Wisconsin will ditch the draconian and useless '48-hour waiting
period'. The only disappointment is that the oppressive law that
Governor Doyle passed that made it unlawful for anyone to use tobacco
products at private sector establishments like restaurants, inns,
motels, hotels, and pubs. It is up to the proprietor of the
establishment to decide whether to forbid smoking, just as it is
their right to post signs that forbid weapons in their establishment.
In the past, many businesses of that nature divided areas for smoking
and non-smoking. Some decided they did not want smoking at all. It
not only was a constitutional right for private sector businesses to
decide, but it afforded customers to make the choice of such
establishments based upon smoking or non-smoking.

No one can
deny that tobacco products are not healthy; but tobacco is a legal
product and the choice is up to the individual, not an overbearing
government pushed by busy-bodies who want to use law to advocate
their personal preferences. Oddly, alcohol has ruined the lives of
many people, but it is not taxed to the point of oppression like
tobacco is. That political process is called social engineering
forcing people not to do something without an outright prohibition.
Such oppressive laws lead to black market criminal operations, as
history reveals and recent news of people getting arrested selling
cigarettes without a tax stamp on them.

Again,
thanks to the Wisconsin legislature and Governor Scott Walker for
their endeavor to bring back constitutional law and reduced
government oppression and intrusion. They are small steps, but
eventually, if enough politicians become constitutional
representatives and senators, we will see true reformation back to
the constitutional republic which the Founders created.

We the People

“Who are the militia? Are they not ourselves? It is feared, then, that we shall turn our arms each man against his own bosom. Congress have no power to disarm the militia. Their swords, and every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birthright of an American... [T]he unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state governments, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people."[Tench Coxe, The Pennsylvania Gazette, 1788]

"He who knows when he can fight and when he cannot, will be victorious. ... The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting." [Sun Tzu]

"Liberty once lost, is lost forever."[John Adamsand Ronald Reagan]

"If you do not look upon life as a great journey filled with adventure, then life is really not worth the effort. ... If you want to see the miracle of life, be present when a child is born. When life is done, another journey begins ... because the soul is energy that cannot be destroyed, it just changes form, according to Albert Einstein." [Keith A. Lehman]

So have I become your enemy by telling you the truth? [Saint John, Letter to Galatians 4:16]

I ask sir, what is the militia? It is the whole body of the people. [George Mason]

The worst form of inequality is to try to make unequal things equal. [Aristotle ]
